The "Pike" is our version of the classic horsebit loafer that took men's footwear by storm many years ago. The horsebit style is traditionally Italian, but has become a staple piece in the the gentleman's wardrobe across the globe -- particularly in New York City.

Among a crowd of imitators, the Pike stands alone as a finely balanced loafer. Its handsome last creates a timeless and elegant silhouette; its hand-stitched "apron" is subtler than the chunky and moccasin-like equivalent found even among designer brands; and finally, its smaller "horse bit" piece creates a more proportional and, consequently, more attractive overall design.

Wear this black calf Pike with fine tailoring or your favorite dark jeans: Its sharp lines make it office-appropriate, while the horse bit design renders it casual enough for weekend wear.
